4.08 gear swap

greasebeast · 12-23-2016, 01:04 AM

I'm thinking about doing the same thing, but leaning toward 4.36. If your car was 90% track use, would you stick with 4.08 or go with 4.36?

i never take it to the track, its my DD, just a lot of spirited runs around town, and when i find some curvy roads. on the highway with 305/30 on rears, im taching right about 3400 at 80moph. but it really runs up through the gears alot quicker. probably would depend on how long the staights are. maybe someone with some track experience could tell you better.

i dropped the pumpkin myself and brought it to the rear end shop in livermore ca for a quaife differential install. i think he charged $250 total. really good dude.

you're pretty far away from livermore but i'd imagine you could freight it over to him or something
